For utilities, railroads, and insurers facing increasing wildfire exposure, early access to experienced wildfire investigation and fire behavior expertise is critical.
Establishing a relationship before an incident occurs provides immediate access to strategic guidance, technical analysis, and expert support when time matters most.
This service is designed for organizations that require direct access to senior-level expertise for early-stage evaluation, internal coordination, and rapid response following wildfire incidents or claims.
Priority Access Includes:
Direct access for rapid consultation and case evaluation
Early-stage review of origin and cause findings and reports
Strategic input on fire behavior, spread analysis, and causation scenarios
Coordination with internal teams, outside counsel, and investigators
Identification of strengths, weaknesses, and key technical issues
Availability for rapid deployment when field response is required
Early involvement often determines the direction of a case.
Engaging expert analysis at the outset can significantly impact investigative strategy, resource allocation, and overall case outcomes.
Annual Retainer
A limited number of organizations are engaged on an annual retainer basis to ensure priority access and availability.
Retainer clients receive preferred access for consultation, evaluation, and strategic advisory services throughout the year.
Field deployments, formal investigations, depositions, and testimony are billed separately.
When wildfire exposure carries significant financial and legal risk, access to proven expertise is not optional - it is essential.
